I chose to do a graduate program with SIT in addition to my study abroad because I was really excited to go abroad again, to learn in a global context, and also I really liked that it was a one-year intensive program. 

I find that with every SIT program, I grow as a person.

SIT South Africa: Social and Political Transformation

SIT global master’s programs build on what you loved most about studying abroad: deep cultural immersion, learning directly from experts in the field, and exploring complex global issues through a culturally inclusive lens. 

On these programs, you will study a critical global issue in at least two different countries and continents, and earn your degree in just one year. You’ll witness firsthand the challenges, successes, and vastly differing perspectives of communities on the front lines of climate change, crisis management, sustainable development, diplomacy, or education. During your final practicum semester, you’ll leverage SIT's vast global network to work directly with an organization in responding to these challenges in the location of your choosing. 

With SIT, your passion for cross-cultural experiences and learning becomes a powerful tool for advancing your career and making an impact.

Continue Your Journey

The transition to graduate school with SIT felt incredibly intuitive. The supporting infrastructure that I relied on during my undergraduate experience felt strongly in place still, and academically, there was room for increased rigor and ownership over my work.

This graduate program has contributed to one of the most enriching and grounding years for me. I have felt incredibly challenged and supported throughout, and I have been given the liberty to explore so many of my varying interests."
